damn, whether the administor could delete all these posts? i am not expecting this argue to happen and also i am not interested at all to be in the position to discuss the usage of malware (what so ever) on the ethic level. At least, think with brains, if someone posts sth 'evil', wouldn't he tend to hide his intention , rather than be stupid to post all the code like i do? :-) hope that most people would 'buy' it. I am trying to understand the anger that may arise because of the hacking tools, but feeling really weird to be the target. hope that this group is being kind to ignorance ,rather than think of people as a demon. if anybody knows what the proper driver or correct way is, i am very glad to hear that. any comment is welcome, but i hope it could be more instructive (for example, with a solution :-)..)
